Same here. Yet yesterday DHL did give me a one hour slot. Maybe because the watch came from abroad, cannot see what difference that would make though. Yesterday’s delivery was also Apple, a watch band.

Mine delivered 10 minutes ago. Currently in the process of setting everything up.
Already though I'm loving the Milanese Loop.

I always forget how beautiful Apple's packaging is.
I’m still using half my SS0 box as the charging place overnight! Keep toying with a “proper” stand for it and my phone... Have fun setting it up!

I just picked up my 44mm Titanium Apple Watch from the UPS depot. I can’t wait to replace my 44mm Stainless Steel Apple Watch with it. I just hope I don’t have any problems transferring my EE plan over.

Thanks - just tried my luck again on 150 and managed to get a knowledgable tech support person.

I haven't paired the new S5 yet but he's updated the EID and told me to unpair my current S3 (removing the data plan) and then pair the new S5 and activate data in the normal way. He said everything should "just work" :)

Will try this when I get home...
OK, so it didn't work. Been on with EE for an hour today with no success. I now have TWO watches on my account, neither of which work. I've now to wait 48 hours before contacting them again. :mad:
 
Did you select “Keep Plan” when unpairing your old watch?

No, because I was told by the EE level 2 tech that I should remove the data plan. Anyway, they said that it wasn't a problem when I rang them today and they re-enabled the plan on my phone. I have two plans showing - one "unused" (which I've been told not to remove) and another one now "activating", but it's been around 10 hours. Maybe their systems are just busy at the moment due to the number of people activating new watches...

Hope it works out OK. Even on the EE forum there is some confusion, and that’s where I found the “Keep Plan” advice.

Yes, it's the Apple Milanese loop. I'll probably go for an Amazon Leather band though.

Looks really nice. I’ll order the amazon one tonight based off the look of yours, got nothing to lose for 15 quid, seems to have really good reviews too. I’ve had a couple of sport bands off Amazon too, one was quite sticky and felt cheap but the other was identical in feel to an Apple one. Weird lol.

First time I've had a Milanese loop band and I love it. Makes the watch look a bit more professional than the sport loop does IMO
